On the morning of April 13th, facing the scenic and calm Pacific Ocean, more than ten Dafa practitioners from San Diego practiced Falun Gong exercises while listening to the instructions and the graceful Dafa music. That same day, the local ABC evening news did a special report about Falun Gong, hosted by Ms. Lee Ann Kim - all the while, in the background, the magnificent display of the practitioners' peaceful exercise on the beach was used. During the program, Ms Kim showed alternating images of Chinese policemen brutally beating practitioners in Tiananmen Square, the letter from the Chinese Consulate General in Los Angeles threatening the local US officials who had issued proclamations for Falun Gong, and clips from the interview with the Mayor of Santee, Mr. Randy Voepel, who stood up against the pressure by the Chinese government and proclaimed an award supporting Falun Gong, etc. By showing practitioners peacefully doing exercises and being interviewed by Ms Kim, all facts were aptly presented to thousands of TV viewers. Without a doubt, this special news report offered an excellent opportunity for people to understand Falun Dafa.
Among the veteran (having practiced cultivation for quite some time already) and new practitioners in San Diego, many of them take themselves as particles of Dafa, and participate vigorously with cultivation activities for Fa rectification.
